Last Sunday, 17th March 2013 we went to Shyamkhola and Chintamani Kar Bird Sanctuary near Narendrapur. Here I saw and recorded this fulvous-breasted woodpecker's vocalisation and also the sound it made on the tree trunk with its beak.
Those who might not know - the very first sound that you hear is the call of the woodpecker. It is a very soft chuck chuck sound. Unless you are careful you will soon be drowned in the other calls of background species. The sound of the beak on the trunk is like a creaky door being opened. I hope this helps.
